  5. I remember Bruce’s enthusiasm at Thanksgivings, Christmases and other extended family gatherings growing up.

    I remember seeing Bruce as an adult and admiring what a kind and gentle man he had become.

  10. Sending love and light to Bardes family. I didn’t have the pleasure to know Bruce personally and that is my lost. However, his best man speech at Brian and Rachel’s wedding spoke volumes to me. His words were inspiring and gave you a glimpse into Bruce’s heart. He was clearly one in a million… in his speech he not only managed to honor the bride and groom but his entire family. I wish there was something I could to help you all at this time. Dear friends if you need anything please reach out to my family. You are not alone,
    Breanne

  17. Rest in peace Bruce. This is a very difficult time. We know he will watch over all the people he loved. We are grateful for meeting him and his family.

  18. I think Bruce’s laugh is what stays with me most of all, as it was always so readily given and always so infectious, whether at family gatherings, or during that trip to Switzerland when we were kids, or while giving me some good-hearted ribbing on my wedding day. Such a great guy, such a proud father, and such a loving husband. You will be missed, Cousin.

  19. Brian’s aunt Liz and uncle Jim, on the maternal side, only got to meet Bruce briefly .We actually knew him only through the eyes of Rachel and Bryan, Who loved him so very much. We are filled with sorrow For his mother his wife and his children. I wish you the peace that comes with the passage of time, And in the knowledge that he was well cared for and all that love could do was done. We send love and light. Jim and Elizabeth

  22. We only had the privilege of meeting Bruce on a couple of occasions but it was plain to see that he and his wife Kimberly were the kind of couple who were easy to know and spend time with. It’s always so difficult to lose a loved one and our hearts go out to the entire Bardes family.
